Texas Tech Road 10k Race, Tech Homecoming and Kid's Visit

Last week was one busy week at Schwertner Country. The kids(Janet, Justin, Cole, Natalie and Jessica and Matt) came down for the Tech homecoming. I ran in the 10k run at Tech on Sat. morning. The temperature was in the 40's, yes it was quite chilly for the first mile, then the long sleeve shirt came off. I ran the whole 10k without stopping or walking and it took me 1:05 to finish. Not bad for an old lady like me. That evening we all attended the Texas Tech/Kansas State game. We tailgated for a little while before with some friends and then headed for the game. It was a great game. Sheffield is something else. Way to go Tech and Sheffield!! Cole had such a great time too. Natalie got to stay with great granny and great aunt Suzanne.

Jessica left on Sunday and Janet and Justin stayed till Wed. and took Bryan back with them. He'll be coming back today or tomorrow. I miss them all already.

Today I ran my 8 miles and did pretty good considering I didn't run all week. I've got to get back to running and following my schedule. The marathon is in less than 4 weeks. I'm getting so excited but I'm ready for it to come and go on the other hand. I would like to run when I want and not have to follow a schedule.
